Hema Malini
Hema Malini, a dashing charming and glowing skin girl was born on October 16, 1948, in Ammankudi, Tiruchirapalli district, Tamil Nadu to V.S.R. Chakravarty and Jaya.. She was a leading Indian actress, director and producer, as well as a Bharatanatyam dancer-choreographer. She made the Bollywood to be proud of its hits films. She went on to appear in numerous successful Bollywood films, most notably those with actor and future-husband Dharmendra. She was initially promoted as "Dream Girl", and in 1977 starred in a film of the same name and is still known by this hit name, which made her different from others. She was known for both her comic and dramatic roles, and her accomplished c
lassical dancing. Hema Malini is a dedicated Bharatanatyam artiste and her two daughters have trained in the related Odissi school of dance. The three have performed together at several charity dance concerts.
Hema is one of the most successful female filmstars in the history of Indian cinema. Appearing in over 150 films in a career span of 40 years, she has starred in a large number of hit films, and her performances in both commercial and arthouse cinema, were often recognised. She is also a member of India's Bharatiya Janata Party and represents the party in Rajya Sabha, the upper House of parliament. She now spends most of her time involved in charitable and social ventures, though she still makes occasional appearances in films.
Hema Malini being educated at Chennai first tried to enter films in 1964, but was rejected( by Tamil director Sridhar saying she had no star appeal). She then tried in bollywood. She debuted in a 1968 film Sapnon Ka Saudagar ("The Dreamseller"), playing a young teen opposite the ageing superstar Raj Kapoor. With Dev Anand in Johnny Mera Naam (1970), Hema became a top star. She worked with him again in Tere Mere Sapne (1971), among other films, with the latest being Aman Ke Farishtey (2003). Hema double-roled with Dharmendra and Sanjeev Kumar in 1972s Seeta Aur Geeta as the top female star in Bollywood. She became one of the reigning divas of the Bollywood film industry, and her fans called her The Dream Girl of Bollywood (an allusion to the movie of the same name where she starred opposite Dharamendra).
After taking a back seat from films for a number of years in the 1990s and early 2000s, Hema has recently made a comeback of sorts. She co-starred with Amitabh Bachchan in the successful film Baghban (2003), and played a cameo role (also opposite Bachchan) in the 2004 blockbuster Veer-Zaara. In both films, she played a beautiful, self-possessed, old married woman rather than the ingenuinee roles of her earlier career.
She also tried her hand at directing and made the 1992 film Dil Aashna Hai which featured an all-star cast including Shahrukh Khan and the late Divya Bharti. She also directed and starred in the TV serial Noopur, in which she was depicted as a Bharatanatyam dancer going to America. Stars of the Bollywood like Sanjeev Kumar and Jeetendra proposed to her, but she married Dharmendra a Jat Sikh on 2 May 1980.
